Topic: [closed] Command line controls

Gparted is quite clearly the best application of its type, but it lacks the ability to be scripted, or used on systems without X.  Adding command-line control would be incredibly useful.

I realize one could use parted, but there really is no comparison when it comes to ease of use and automation.  Try shrinking an ext3 partition with parted... then do it with Gparted.  Easy choice big_smile

I realize this would be a difficult feature to impliment, but it would be an excellent addition.

Re: [closed] Command line controls

GParted is a graphical partition tool.  Currently there are no plans to make it into a command line partition tool.

You can learn more about the scope of GParted in the GParted Mission Statement.
